From Pulau Banggi to Geneva


PULAU Banggi is the biggest island that is fully within our country’s borders, occupying a land mass larger than the better known Langkawi and Penang islands.

However, it is not as well known as either, as it is located off the northernmost points of mainland Sabah, about 70km from Kudat. Only accessible by ferry or speedboat, it is home to 20,000 residents whose main economy is fishing, oil palm and rubber.
